First Wedding

I think every photographer must be very nervous to do a wedding, but the FIRST wedding makes you just a little more nervous! I was so excited to do this, so I channeled all of my nervousness into creative energy and I am very happy with the results. It was a beautiful day for a beautiful couple. It was a joy to photograph their special day.

I have quite a few favorites. I will share a couple of them and then I will slideshow the rest :-) Enjoy! They are lovely!







Baby Olivia

If you scroll down to my post "First Session", you will see the lovely Tia in her maternity session which just happens to be my first session I did! She had her beautiful baby girl and invited me over when she was just two days old to take newborn pictures of her. I can't wait to continue taking pictures of this beautiful baby as she grows!


The Beauty of Oz

One of my oldest and dearest friends flew in to Sacramento for a few days and I was so happy to be able to spend some time with her. She was expecting a baby boy (now born!) and I wanted to take some maternity pictures for her as part of her gift. Her sister was there and I got some lovely pictures of them together. It was a lovely afternoon of catching up, talking about past memories together and taking lots of pictures.

Little Tori

This little girl has such a sweet spirit! I was a little nervous I wasn't going to get the shots I wanted because she didn't really warm up to me like kids normally do... maybe because I had a camera infront of my face and I looked like a crazy stranger!! But her sweet spirit shined with her parents. I had a lot of fun walking around Elk Grove Park, capturing sweet memories and catching up with an old friend.

Session with J

My beautiful sister-in-law booked me the moment she found out I was serious about this photography thing. She wanted a boudoir session and I was so excited to try this type of photography!! She was a great model and I am very happy with the pictures. I'll share just a few with you, but the rest are private ;-)

First Session - Tia's Maternity Portraits

While taking pictures of the ballet class at 916 Dance Studio I met Tia, an expecting mommy. We scheduled a maternity session. I explained to her I was just starting out and that I didn't have much experience, but Tia trusted that I could do it.

I went to Tia's home a few weeks ago for the session. She was so warm and welcoming I immediately felt at ease. We jumped right into it and I have to say, she made my first session incredibly easy! A natural infront of the camera and absolutley stunning!

I am very happy with my first session and I think Tia was too.

Thank you for trusting me to do your maternity session knowing that I didn't have experience, Tia. It meant alot! I can't wait to meet baby Olivia and do my first newborn session with her!!









This is Tia and her mom - yes - her MOM!! They look like sisters!
